Uninstall Office 2010

[leegend 0]

Hi, I am brand new to auto it and require a little bit of help.

I’m creating a script that will uninstall office 2010 on windows 7 machines, my script looks like this:

#RequireAdmin

RunAsWait('User', "Domain", 'Password',0, "\\server\share\office2010\setup.exe /uninstall proplus /config \\server\share\office2010\ProPlus.WW\SilentRepairConfig.xml")

Which doesn’t run the uninstaller, but if i run;

#RequireAdmin

RunAsWait('User', "Domain", 'Password',0, "\\server\share\office2010\setup.exe"

The setup will start, is there a way to get the switches working?

Thank You in anticipation

I don't see any error in the uninstall command line syntax and runaswait function...

May be the xml content ?

Edit : try to add a workingdir in runaswait...

What about:

RunAsWait('User', "Domain", 'Password',0, "\\server\share\office2010\setup.exe /uninstall proplus /config ""\\server\share\office2010\ProPlus.WW\SilentRepairConfig.xml""")

A working dir is not a command line switch... Edited December 17, 2010 by wakillon

A working dir is not a command line switch...

And?? I don't see how that has any relevance to my post.

Argh ! I thought I saw a comma between the programs argument and command line !

cheers for your replys, i have added the extra quotation marks which didnt make a difference. The unattend XML works fine if i run same script in CMD.

Im not sure about changing the working directory? thanks

Hi guys, I tried changing the 0 to a 2 and now it works...strange

Can you think of any idea why changing the visability options would make it work?
